As we gear up for the last few months of the year, we have many exciting endeavors to announce. One biggie is the upcoming launch of our very own Pawsperity magazine, Grooming, Love & Hope. We did take a pause last year from the magazine, with just being in our brand-new facility. We are extremely proud of this annual publication that truly showcases who we are, our mission, and real life testaments from graduates about how our unique program has transformed their lives (and their family’s lives, too).
This undertaking is one that takes many months to create. We have been extremely fortunate to have a very generous photographer, Hallie Sigwing at Hallie Sigwing Photography / Paw Culture, who has given her time and talent specifically for her amazing images. She is so passionate about our mission that she even found a photoshoot space and stylists to do the hair and make up for our feature article graduates. You may have recently seen Hallie’s images in our latest e-blast, which featured many photos from our August graduation. Talk about a great partner!
Some of you have been equally terrific partners and are also in our magazine via ads or quotes in articles because it is a perk from your annual partnership. If you are interested in learning more, and participating next year, I encourage you to reach out to Maureen at mkennedy@pawsperity.org for more information. This publication circulates both online and in hard copies. Additionally, if you’d like to help us distribute magazines via an organization, office, or company you may work at or be connected to, please also reach out to Maureen.
A big thanks to our team members who have made this huge project possible. Stay tuned via our social media pages for our official launch of this year’s issue, which will take place later this month! We cannot wait to share it with you!
